My life as a domestic diva, wife, mother, finder of lost things, laundress, dog wrangler, maid and friend. You won't believe some of the things that happen in my household of 5 plus 10 dogs (and whatever critters my daughter is rehabbing at the moment)

As many of you know, I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia about a year ago. And although it's been a rough road to travel, I am not letting this illness defeat me. However, I am working on something that I could really use your help on.

I have entered a contest to win a new Tempurpedic mattress. This will help with my pain immensley. As it is, I have not been able to sleep in bed with my husband for over two years due to the fact that the mattress causes me so much extreme pain. I could never afford this type of mattress, but have heard many good things from Fibromyalgia patients.

In this contest, I had to submit a photograph showing what makes me happy. of course, I submitted a photo of myself and my youngest daughter, in front of the wen cam, making goofy faces. My entry is titled "Silliness Makes me Happy". Now YOU can help change my daily life!! All you need to do is click a green "vote" box! You can vote daily until December 1st and I would be forever grateful! Thank you....the link is here:http://apps.facebook.com/contestshq/contests/55116/voteable_entries/7894862

It's Me!

Mom, have you seen my........

Hey family.....more than likely, they are crammed under the coffee table, under the couch cushion, in your car, in the back yard or the dog ate it!

Yes, I'm the keeper of lost things, the cook, the maid, the nurse and EMT, the personal shopper, the "Dear Abby" and the one who gives the hugs and soup when someone is sick.

My home life looks just like your typical suburban soccer mom until you look a bit closer............then you'll see things that will make you scratch your head! Killer frogs in my back yard, giant moths that attack, far too many dogs, a daughter who recently moved home and brought her stalker-violent ex problems with her, a son with only half a brain, a 10 year old straight "A" student who's teaching herself Japanese and so much more.

Welcome to my blog....the asylum, if you will. Read my rantings, meet my family and enjoy the insanity. After all, if we can't laugh at life, then it's just not worth living!
